the cannabinoidergic system acquired a reputation as the most abundant g-protein coupled receptor in the cns that acts as retrograde modulator of neurotransmitter release. recently, endocannabinoids (ecbs) have been highlighted as neurodevelopmental signaling cues that exert a regulatory role in brain development. the interruption in ecb system elements (including receptors and enzymes of synth...

In the present study a new economic and rapid bacterial micro-assay for simultaneous detection and quantitative measurement of serum galactose was developed. Analysis of the standard curve showed a linearity range for galactose from 2 mg/dL to 180 mg/dL with a regression equation of Y = 0.013X ? 0.083; R² = 0.962. The advantage of the method is its ability to measure serum galactose quantitativ...

there is a great interest in developing rapid analytical methods and provide appropriate parametersfor quantitative analysis of compounds derived from refractory pollutants. such methods are important forroutine quality control analysis of an effluent before being discharged into the environment. therefore, a rapid methodology for identification and quantification of some aliphatic acids is pro...

the relationship between population structure and violent conflict is complex and heavily dependent on the behavior of other variables like governance, economic prospects, and urbanization. while addressing rapid population growth might be a necessary condition for peace, it is by no means sufficient. concomitant steps must also be taken to foster inclusivity, guarantee broader rights for all, ...
